Buttonwillow Open Track Day
 

Well..........I finished a big project for my business and the customers were ecstatic with the work I did so I thought I would treat myself to a day off running hot laps! Buttonwillow was having an open track day so Rodger loaded up his Mustang GT and we flogged it around the track!

Morning Crew! (L - R Rodger, Jeremy, Jason)

Down the front straight at 110 mph! I gotta work on being faster than Rodger so that when we finish the car I can smoke him in the corners! My car will be faster than his down the straights but he's a better driver than me through the corners so he'll smoke me in the corners!

Thanks for letting me drive your car Rodger! I had a great time!:cheers:

Wish I could have taken up the invite but I had to get the Fairlane ready for her engine transplant.. :)

Hopefully the next one, it's been WAY too long since I've been to Buttonwillow.. love that track (since even a knucklehead like me can't find anything to hit... lol).

Don't worry Steve! I still have the lovely dirt taste in my mouth from spinning the car out on turn one and being enveloped in a nice cloud of BW dirt!:lol:
